This is my favorite review here. But it IS a monumental upgrade. I mean, people went nuts for the white iphone which was just as much of a monumental upgrade. So why all the disdain when apple uses its massive R&D knowhow to come up with the way to attach that vibrant white shell of purity to the touch? Time to squeal with joy, isn't it?

wait what, no way, that is amazing, this is the best feature ever. A White iPod Touch, Im quivering in excitement. Not really, i don't care, i love my 4thGen in black just fine. However this is the best review I have ever seen. So detailed.

I disagree with the reviews I've read of this smart-ass, non-helpful "review," and reads as condescending to anyone who's not as "in the know" as the reviewer. It could have said what is the same as the 2010 product. Specifically: Is the processor the same? (Apparently - heck if I know from this "review.") Does it come with Siri, or can Siri be installed on it? Oh, and since Apple's advertising it as a "new" feature for the new iPod Touch, is iMessenger really a reason for someone to get a new iPod Touch? (Apparently not since it seems to come with iOS - but you wouldn't know from reading this "review.") Is there anything new about this new product that keeps it one of the top options for consumers looking for a (relatively) low-cost portable digital media player - or should they hold out for a Kindle Fire? (Probably not, and maybe - who knows?)
The reason I read this blog and the other blogs connected to it (particularly Android Central and Pre Central) is because they're entertaining and useful, most of the time. This post is the opposite of it. I hope you don't publish any more reviews like this one.

I also come here because it's informative - most of the time. The review was just smart-ass. If that's all they were going for, awesome. Smart-ass can be entertaining. But this site is billed as an iOS information site, last I checked. And since I actually came here for information on the latest iPod Touch, this review was a disappointment. I had to figure out for myself what was not different. Here's a novel idea - maybe the reviewer can actually talk about how there's basically no difference, instead of merely make fun of it and leave it up to the reader to figure it out? This was, in fact, the least-helpful review I've read on this site.

Get a life man. It's the same thing as the iPod that was launched in 2010. Just in white colour. If you needed all that information that you were mentioning, I think you're stuck in 2010, cause anyone visiting tipb would at least know the basic stuff about an iPod touch.
The fact that there was another post created to accommodate this "rerun" was a bonus. Better than reposting the same review just with a white iPod touch.
I think Siri would be good for you.

You left out the most critical information that we simply must know... What is the 'Quality" of the white used in this high tech device?
It is too important for that to be skipped over. Apple after all perfected, & probably has a patent, on white technology gizmos.

Apple sort of dropped the ball on this one. I figured they'd at least give it a better camera. My fiance has an iPod Touch that I got her earlier this year, and it's camera is worse than the first camera phone I ever had (V3 RAZR).

As soon as they announced the "4G" iPod Touch that I'd been waiting on for a year, I went to Best Buy and bought the 3G for $25 off.
Seriously; I took the gift cards I'd been saving and went the same afternoon. I got an iFrogz case on clearance, too. (The prices probably went back up when they figured out they were still good!) The only bummer was I'd been wanting a 3mp camera, but I guess I'll have to live without it.

Very good iPod Reviews !!
nsigh
Very detailed & insightful..
Incredible, how Apple has over the years transformed the first generation iPod to today's iPod touch... with excellent features. Though I own an iPhone 4 still I would like to lay hands to ipod touch....
